This is easily goes to the Sons of Sparda.
Maybe, just maybe Sora and Riku would stand a chance against pre-DMC4 Dante, but the stuff Dante shows off in DMC4 is PURE HAXX. Dante just breezes his way through the whole game and he didn't even need to DT or get out of assclown mode.
Dante was able to overpower Echinda's jaw power, Dante sat on Berial's tail showing he is immune to fire. Dante face wasn't crushed or bruised the slightest by Nero's DevilBringer the strongest item in the series by FAR. Just look at the pure havoc Nero can commit with it. Dante is just as fast as Sora, in DMC2 he traveled at the speed of light to Despair's right side before he shot him, and Dante once again showed he can travel at the speed of light in his short fight with Sanctus.Having vergil is just and added bonus, Dante and Vergil easily take this.
Vergil and Nero would be a more fair match up, Dante is just made of pure hax in DMC4.

If he's mortal, then this isn't even a debate anymore. Aizen's sheer reiatsu would crush Naraku so badly that this isn't even funny.

I had hoped to avoid getting in to this because because it was supposed to be over, since we don't know enough about the Espada or whatever. But we didn't know much about Ukitake, Yamamoto and Shunsui back during the Gotei vs. Org battle...which didn't stop it from being a curb-stomp in the Gotei's favor.
See, coming from someone who has played KH, I can honestly say that the majority of the Org. members are fast, that's given. But to say that their physical strength and brute power match that of the Gotei, let alone the Espada is a tad stretching it don't you think?
How many Org. members have you seen, while playing the game, destroy a building? Cause a massive crater DBZ style? Move so fast that Sora can't follow their movements, or endure damage greater than a few sword strikes? I've seen Sora knock away a building fragment. I've seen him move his sword quickly enough to block thousands of energy blasts. I've seen Xigbar teleport. That's about it. And since the Org. members endure blows from the Keyblade, which cuts through buildings, that MIGHT be enough to consider them durable. But can the Keyblade's cutting power REALLY be based on the user's strength, or the fact that it's a magical wonder-sword? I'm betting on the latter.
I've seen buildings levitated and launched at Sora via magic (not brute force). Likewise let's remember that every feat, attack, or noteworthy anything that comes from Sora is attributed solely to his Keyblade. Basically, I'm just saying that some of the things that are supposed to represent feats for the Org. members are'nt deal breaking evidence. And even if Sora's Keyblade measured his strength, look at it this way: Sora cuts through buildings. Ichigo cuts through buildings. Ichigo can't cut through Noitora, so Sora can't cut through Noitora based on his cutting power. Sora > Org. XIII, therefore Noitora and higher Espada> Org XIII.
Oh, and Leroux > Org. XIII aswell, though through hax ability rather than brute force. You COULD make an Akatsuki vs. Org. XIII fight though...long as Kisame, Madara, Itachi, Deidara, Pein, Kakuzu, and Sasori aren't in it...

"Curb-stomped"? No, because the 'arguements' there were horrible. Bleach characters magically had the priority for element manipulation, and... don't get me started on that again.
It was over, by the way.
See, coming from someone who has played KH, I can honestly say that the majority of the Org. members are fast, that's given. But to say that their physical strength and brute power match that of the Gotei, let alone the Espada is a tad stretching it don't you think?
Not everything is about physical strength and brute power. That was like, the entire point of the HM Arc. Other than Zaraki vs Nnoitora and Ichigo vs Grimmjow... how many fights were about nothing but power?
How many Org. members have you seen, while playing the game, destroy a building? Cause a massive crater DBZ style? Move so fast that Sora can't follow their movements, or endure damage greater than a few sword strikes?
Destroy a building? Roxas would be able to, being superior to Sora, who can destroy buildings. DBZ-Style craters? Who cares?
Move faster than Sora could see? Marluxia vanishes, reappeares behind Sora, whispers in his ear, AND inflicts a curse on him before Sora turns around. lol?
Xemnas and Xigbar are also givens. You have to remember that YOU can always see the enemy, as you have full screen vision - as the player. Sora, however...
I've seen Sora knock away a building fragment. I've seen him move his sword quickly enough to block thousands of energy blasts. I've seen Xigbar teleport. That's about it.
Not fragments. At the start of the (chains of) final battle(s), Xemnas makes about five buildings rise in a line. I know they're buildings because I let Sora get hit once out of curiosity.
He slices through all five - three times, I believe - within seconds. Just saying. Btw, Roxas > Sora. Roxas is in the OXIII.
And since the Org. members endure blows from the Keyblade, which cuts through buildings, that MIGHT be enough to consider them durable. But can the Keyblade's cutting power REALLY be based on the user's strength, or the fact that it's a magical wonder-sword? I'm betting on the latter.
Either way, it doesn't matter. And yes, it is definately the latter. But once again, it doesn't matter. They can still take the shots. Hell, Saix even lets Sora hit him quite often during their fight.
Also, there are times when even Sora can't harm them. EX, Saix in berserk mode, or any of the others when they're surrounded by any sort of 'aura'.
I've seen buildings levitated and launched at Sora via magic (not brute force).
Once again, the means doesn't matter.
Likewise let's remember that every feat, attack, or noteworthy anything that comes from Sora is attributed solely to his Keyblade. Basically, I'm just saying that some of the things that are supposed to represent feats for the Org. members are'nt deal breaking evidence. And even if Sora's Keyblade measured his strength, look at it this way: Sora cuts through buildings. Ichigo cuts through buildings. Ichigo can't cut through Noitora, so Sora can't cut through Noitora based on his cutting power. Sora > Org. XIII, therefore Noitora and higher Espada> Org XIII.
lulwuht? Ichigo had just fought Grimmjow, and wasn't even expecting Nnoitora to have tough skin. Obviously, Ichigo's attack failed.
And no, Nnoitora had the hardest hierro. Let's say the Org couldn't cut through his, that doesn't speak for the others.
Also, if the keyblade can be used to inflict minor strikes in 'friendly' battles - and also increase its power to slice through buildings, who's to say that its power doesn't vary from opponent to opponent?
Who's to say that a keyblade wouldn't slice through hierro?
Oh, and Leroux > Org. XIII aswell, though through hax ability rather than brute force. You COULD make an Akatsuki vs. Org. XIII fight though...long as Kisame, Madara, Itachi, Deidara, Pein, Kakuzu, and Sasori aren't in it...
Even though Xemnas, Xigbar, Demyx (and anyone else I can't remember) could definately launch more than 50 attacks at one time?
No Akatsuki, thanks.
Anyway... now this thread is going to keep going on and on and on. =_="
[edit]
I will, however, admit that the Vastolordes would definately be 'unbeatable', due to their uber-ness. But, this thread was made before they were introduced, I believe.
But what everyone is saying, and trying to do. Underestimating anyone that isn't from Bleach. Wrong.
KH characters in particular are seriously underestimated. Why? Because they're from a game that's 'linked' to Disney?
I don't know, but seriously.

This thread is gonna get revied by someone once all of the espada have their powers revealed.
but no one better post in this thread.
I think even person with pure intentions would be corrupted by such power. Even if person would like to destroy those who is bad and kill people, would eventually kill innocent that got on his/her way.
There is a saying: "Absolute power corrupts absolutely with out exceptions".
I got my hands on Death Note I would burn it.
Besides spending eternity in purgatory not going to heaven or hell would really suck.
Also it’s strange that people here worried about if they get away with that, not that fact that they kill many people.
You should watch it. It's different anime from all the reast.
Main character wanted to become a god with a power of the death note.
I like Near he is excelent strategist and he is like 10 or 11.

I would use it, but my problem is, I'm a bit of an anti-hero in thought, and I wouldn't mind heroic bloodshed. If anything, I wouldn't play it safe, nor would I play it recklessly, and I would use the Death Note to restore order to broken economies, by killing off corrupt leaders and the scum from their societies, and place them under strict supervision from myself and my cohorts, and if my partners decieve my ideals, and corrupt their powers, they will fall from the swipe of my pen.
I would also, despite the cruelty of how this sounds, I will wipe religion from the Earth. Whether it be capturing Jerusalem, destroying the Church, whatever means necessary to keep religion from affecting political action, and this is difficult, very, without cutting it at it's roots, all to end war between the ignorant masses whom don't understand religion is a "belief" and kill eachother over tales told in books.
And finally, since I would use the eyes, I won't be able to see my decisions shape the world after I perish, so I would keep a system of heirs, somewhat like a "Wammy's House" for DN users, where the most intelligent, pure-visioned and persistent can take my role and morph it to whatever they see fit.

Take you pick, all characters have what they've shown us throughout the whole game/manga.
Note: Inuyasha and Sess aren't fighting together.
If you feel Inuyasha is no competition, then debate about Sesshomaru. Your choice.
FullMetal Rebel
05-14-2008, 05:47 AM
Nero has the power advantage hands down no doubt about it with his Devil Bringer.
Inuyasha is no competition in my eyes. I haven't read the manga in a while, but it seems as if Inuyasha gets weaker as time goes on?
Sesshomaru would put up a fight against Nero. Simply because Nero is so damn slow. Nero's speed is average human speed at best. Nero doesn't have the ability to move at blinding speed like Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru takes the cake IMO. Nero's speed hinders him from competing with Sesshomaru on an even level.
Jay3205
05-14-2008, 07:03 PM
I think Inuyasha would win. Since Nero is at least part demon, it would let Inuyasha use all his tessaiga techniques, which all do a ton of damage. Besides, Inuyasha now has the "automatically send you to hell" sword technique.
I really dislike him , but I am a huge fan of L so I a, being bias.

Inuyasha wins thanks to Cutting Meidou Zangetsuha, an attack he just gained last week. It's the same as Sesshoumaru's "automatically send you to hell" technique, but with a swarm of Getsuga Tenshou like slashes. Sess's version of the attack is a sphere, a portal that swallows you and sends you to hell. Inuyasha's cuts you to pieces before sending said pieces to hell.
Likewise, Sess's Bakusaiga has a steady decay ability that not only negates healing abilities but, well...decays the opponent's body. Inuyasha can also cut through forcefields and cut through the the demon version of tenketsu, causing a demon to lose it's energy. It's like what Neji's Jyuuken does, but for demons.
So yeah, the brothers take the win.

I found this on another website and found it quite entertaining. These are the Anime Laws of Physics. There are about 45 but I'll only post them if you guys like these ones...
#1 - Law of Metaphysical Irregularity
The normal laws of physics do not apply.
#2 - Law of Differentiated Gravitation
Whenever someone or something jumps, is thrown, or otherwise is rendered airborne, gravity is reduced by a factor of 4.
#3 - Law of Sonic Amplification, First Law of Anime Acoustics
In space, loud sounds, like explosions, are even louder because there is no air to get in the way.
#4 - Law of Constant Thrust, First Law of Anime Motion
In space, constant thrust equals constant velocity.
#5 - Law of Mechanical Mobility, Second Law of Anime Motion
The larger a mechanical device is, the faster it moves. Armored Mecha are the fastest objects known to human science.
#6 - Law of Temporal Variability
Time is not a constant. Time stops for the hero whenever he does something 'cool' or 'impressive'. Time slows down when friends and lovers are being killed and speeds up whenever there is a fight.
#7 - First Law of Temporal Mortality
'Good Guys' and 'Bad Guys' both die in one of two ways - either so quick they don't even see it coming, OR it's a long drawn out affair where the character gains much insight to the workings of society, human existence or why the toast always lands butter side down.
#8 - Second Law of Temporal Mortality
It takes some time for bad guys to die... regardless of physical damage. Even when the 'Bad Guys' are killed so quickly they didn't even see it coming, it takes them a while to realize they are dead. This is attributed to the belief that being evil damages the Reality Lobe of the brain.
#9 - Law of Dramatic Emphasis
Scenes involving extreme amounts of action are depicted with either still frames or black screens with a slash of bright color (usually red or white).
#10 - Law of Dramatic Multiplicity
Scenes that only happen once, for instance, a 'Good Guy' kicks the 'Bad Guy' in the face, are seen at least 3 times from 3 different angles.

Truthfully speaking, I would destroy the book to place my conscience at ease. Curiosity is a natural emotion for me and that is where the problem may begin. I am opposed toward employing this object for retaliation against someone. Likewise, I do not wish succumbing to the temptation of using it for personal gain, in any manner. The power would eventually start impairing my better judgment. So it is best to discard of the item, before anything tragic occurs.

True, and maybe they'll come up with something liek V for Vendetta, when even if it strays from the original a tad, it's still a wonderful movie.
I just hope they won't end it with the L arc like the Japanese movies did, and they'll make a sequel so we can finally see live-action Mikami, mello, Matt and Near, especially Shidoh. xD
I soooo want to watch this. <3
But the problem is, will the mainstream fame for Death Note be a bad thing? I mean, we already have enough with the high-school and elementary school kids with their Death Notes, but now we'll have dumbasses criticizing the show's moral ambiguity (even more then we do now).

I find it amusing they're remaking it rather than redubbing the existing film. American audiences would rather see a western cast - just a little discriminatory sleight of hand.

They did. The one in the theatres here a couple weeks ago, and the one comming to dvd soon, was just the original movie, dubbed over with the english cast of the show.
So they dubbed over the Japanese live action cast with the English anime VAs? :facepalm:
Oh, interesting DVD idea; a third audio track of the live action cast audio dubbed with the anime's Japanese cast.

Hopefully it will help make anime more mainstream and we'll get to see more of it licenced and on T.V.
I hate Hollywood movies, so I know this will probably suck. But then again, I'm so curious for some reason that I might just check it out. I have low hopes though.
But even if this is a way to get Death Note into US fanbase, it's not like they'll know it was from a Japanese anime/manga. They'll watch it because it's a Hollywood movie, and not something adapt from a Japanese anime/manga.

Either way it's still just a dragon that breathes white flame(lightning?)...Hyourinmaru is a dragon that can freeze it's opponent upon contact. If it can get in close without being shot with Blue Eye's attack, simply colliding with him would freeze him solid.
Even if he were hit by Blue Eye's, Toushiro said that all the water in the area can be used by Hyourinmaru as a weapon. That includes vapor in the air. I see Hyourinmaru regenerating it's body with frozen water vapor, like Iceman. Then again I could be overestimating Hyourinmaru.

i know it's bad to admit it- but yes i would use the death note-
i don't think i'd go so mad as to kill all convicts etc but the people who killed, raped and abused others just on a whim of theirs; i honestly believe don't deserve to live
The ultimate rivalry manifests into a long anticipated fight. Please bring your wits and common sense.
Note:
-Goku does not have/is not allowed to use SSJ3.
-They're both in Spiritual Bodies (dead) so they can withstand much, much stronger hits.
-They're at the height of their power aka the Kid Buu fight.
-The arena is Supreme Kai's Planet so it cannot go 'splode.
I barely see fair fights in this forum.. maybe this'll be a tad more interesting.

Hmm well if we look at the special moves they have at this point in the series theres :
Goku = Kamehameha, kao kan, spirit bomb, Instant transmission
Vegeta = Big bang, final flash, gallet gun, self destruct, Energy Dan
Gokus instant transmission would definetly give him the edge in the fight and by boosting his speed and strength with a combined ss2 +kaokan i think hed be able to hold his own while landing many succesful hits on vegeta. His spirit bomb however would never have enough time to power up so that wouldnt increase his chances of winning however he could have an awesome chi blast battle with vegeta with his kamehameha. Goku has said many times that hes a ground fighter so id say on the ground goku would be much faster than vegeta which would give him an edge in winning the battle.
Vegeta would definetly be able to hold his own against goku however his ruthless pride might give him a boost of power to land many hit combos. His many chi blast attacks would also give goku a hard time especially his Energy Dan attack where he bombards his opponents with many small chi blasts. Overall id say vegetas strength is higher than gokus (thanks to his gravity training) but his speed would be lower. Vegeta would also be a lot faster than goku in the air so if their fight was mainly in the air id give the edge to vegeta.
So the battle would start of with many punches and kicks and eventually move into the air around the stadium where they would have a chi battle and the final clincher would be a kamehameha v gallet gun battle. The winner of this would be a close one but in my opinion the victor would be goku.
The only way i think vegeta would win is if goku loses by a ring out or if vegeta selfdestructs.
Bit sad with the result seeing as i like vegeta a hell of a lot more than goku but in the end the protagonist wins :)

Gokus instant transmission would definetly give him the edge in the fight and by boosting his speed and strength with a combined ss2 +kaokan i think hed be able to hold his own while landing many succesful hits on vegeta.
Instant Transmission requires an energy to lock on. Sure, he's got Vegeta there fighting him, but with only one person there, it can't be used in an evasive manner.
Well, he could transport behind Vegeta to escape a forward blast, but once Vegeta starts blastin' in all directions... not that easy to IT out of the situation.
Goku hasn't used Kaoken in ages. If he still can - he wouldn't. Since Vegeta is only fighting at SSJ2, then so will Goku. Though Vegeta hates people holding punches against him, Goku does it quite often.
SSJ2 Goku vs SSJ2 Majin Vegeta? Goku didn't go SSJ3 - which he already achieved - much to Vegeta's annoyance upon finding out.
Kaoken, gone. Instant Transmission? Depends on the situation - and I doubt Goku would use it against Vegeta, since he's only used it in a fight once, I believe. Against Cell.
Goku has said many times that hes a ground fighter so id say on the ground goku would be much faster than vegeta which would give him an edge in winning the battle.
Nope. They're dead even in ground combat speed, since Goku can't surpass SSJ2 in this battle. It was shown during their fight during the Buu Saga. Hit for hit - block, counter, parry - they were pretty even in speed and response time.
The only way i think vegeta would win is if goku loses by a ring out or if vegeta selfdestructs.
Not quite. Vegeta doesn't always blow himself up... I don't know why you even listed that as an ability. That was a desperate act to obliterate Buu - as the thing regenerated faster than he could blast it normally.
That would be a draw, btw, since both would die...
As for ring outs, no dice. Vegeta would continue to blast away, whether or not he - or Goku - get ringed out.
I sure hope there isn't an audience, since Goku would more than likely hold back to avoid blowing them up... Empty stadium?
At any rate, the fight would be so sickenly close that I wouldn't be surprised with a draw - both delivering a final knock-out punch to render each other unconscious, with smiles on their faces.
[edit]
Though, Vegeta is much more harsh... who knows what he'd do..

L has never been shown once (in neither the anime nor manga) eating anything other than sweets. There are obsessions, such as watching an entire anime in one day or posting 1000 posts on this forum in a week, but when you eat nothing but sweets your entire adult life, that's a bit too strong of an addiction to be considered "normal". :p

I agree, its gonna be pretty much a draw with them both being in only Ssj2, although giving Goku the slight edge IMO. Although goku can't go to SSj3, he can still gain more power using his Kai-oken ability, which may give him an edge over Vegeta.

Hrm. Lol, it is Ironic how these 2 villains actually does want/does posses round shaped jewels.
Hougyoku and Shikon lol.
In any case. Aizen can live and survive without the Hougyoku, he has his own internal powers even without it. Unlike, Naraku who has to depend on the Sacared Jewel to possess some strength and power that is one flaw for him already.
As mentioned how in the latest chapters of Inuyasha that Naraku's body is no longer immortal then there is no mistaking that if Aizen does face Naraku without Naraku possessing the whole piece of the Sacred Jewel, then he is good as dead.
Agreed?
I don't see how Aizen is worse than Naraku when Naraku is originally a human who sold his soul to the demons to become what he is now which is Naraku. True, you might say that Aizen betrayed Soul Society for his own desire but he has planned all his moves and tactics for a long time.
:) Aizen does win this battle hands down.

Either that, or matching the style of handwriting.

It is likely that the orphanage is used as a place to raise childhood geniuses, and the fact that they all have asperges is just coincidink :p
No one said they had Asberger's...
i agree with pyramus, why would Watari want the greatest people who solve crimes, have a disorder. and besides, maybe they just really like something. and besides, is there a problem with a strong sweet tooth?
I don't think it was Watari's intention to have a little "Genius-farm" to create the world's greatest detectives...
I dunno, if someone has the ol' Aspies it's definitely Near. Distant, and all the friggin' toys... he's like 18 and he even gets assisted with his toys? What?
L... nah. Maybe some light-form of Aspberger's, maybe. Mello has a way too high social skill to have it, and we really don't have enough proof (or do we?) that he is a serious gaming addict.
But, having seen people with Asberger's, I really doubt anyone of them have it.

The first mistake Light did was he killed the first criminal from Japan witch were in his own city i guess, that lead L to the right location.

I don't think I'd use it [because I'd probably end up killing someone I hated then realizing how much I missed them or something like that...], but I wouldn't go burning it either for such a crappy reason that it was evil.
Seriously, I'm not trying to act nice or anything, but I don't think I'd actually kill people like terrorists or a particular very annoying politician in the US even if I could. I mean, I don't really hate them or anything. On top of that, although I think it's horrible that they kill people directly or indirectly, I still can't feel any real sympathy for the victims so I don't entirely see the reason why I should be the ones to kill the killers in the first place. That is to say, I don't particularly care whether they live or die. >_<;
I'd just leave the Deathnote there for the next person to walk by to pick it up.

He becomes stronger in his Avatar state. Geez. You obviously aren't a real fan if you don't know that. He gains unbelievable strength, the only downside is that he loses control of himself, and if he's killed in that form, then the cycle is over.
Avatar state feats:
- Destroying an entire Fire Nation Navy fleet.
- Causing a stable volcano to erupt, and destroy an island.
- Causing massive tornados/winds, destroying everything around him.
And yes, I hate Naruto, but I have defended him in a few topics. kthx.
And I just saw..or...resaw the power of a true Avatar last night. Avatar Kyoshi(sp?) spit an island in two with Earth Bending, then caused an underwater volcano to erupt and slit it further with Fire Bending. Then she used Air Bending(and possibly water) to push the island in half and seperate it.
avatar got beaten by a girl a girl he cant even beat up a girl he tried to go avatar stage azula used lightining and he got hurt naruto can easy beat him he is way faster than aang he can heal when naruto goes 4 tail he is invulnerable unable to get hurt unlimited power and chackra
[QUOTE=Silhouette;1268669]Wtf? I know what a roar is, but you said it like it was an attack. So, I asked what kind of attack it was, since normal "roaring", especially not in Kyuubi mode, would only get Naruto laughed at.
@Jay: Naruto lost to Sasuke because Sasuke is better. >.>;
Back @ ninjabot: I also saw, last night, that Aang caused a tidal wave by simply waving his arms up. He wasn't even trying, and wasn't even in his Avatar state. It was a simple arm wave, and he made a tidal wave. That tells you something...
Also realize that he can mix elements, not just use one at a time. So far, although I'm sure he can use all of them if he were a master, I've only seen him use two at a time.
Wind + Earth = Blowing away all Shadow Clones, while stopping Naruto's movements by trapping his feet, or turning the ground into mud; and since Aang can fly, mud wouldn't effect his speed.
Wind + Water = Being able to easily cause tornados and tidal waves, this combo could win it for him.
Those are just two combos. I'll give you this though, Kyuubi-Naruto would power his way through most of Aang's effortlessly used attacks, but once Aang either put more power behind his attacks or went into the Avatar state, its pretty much over.

i think there is no point in dis fight....aang knows how to control wind....naruto's rasengan and his rasenshuriken are both base on wind.....naruto is a wind user....aang can just munipulate naruto's attack and nuetralize it easily, but then there is da shadow clone and da summoning....my guess is dat there is going to b a tie between them....but naruto got da biggest advantage....

Hmm...would I use the Death Note? I guess it's all about the heat of the moment and the adrenaline rush. I was totally on L's and N's side for the whole show, but if I really had to think on this...
I think I might have used the Death Note. I get so pissed even when I hear of such things as rape, especially when it pertains to little children being raped and murdered. I get filled with rage even if I don't know the victims and just wish at that time to kill the bastard that does it. So I really think I eventually would.
I wouldn't aim to be God or anything, but I would surely kill those who deserve to be and would surely help the world by their death. I guess that thought is only human nature...and according to Ryuuk, that what makes humans... truly interesting.

Very true. It was really his first mistake to kill them there. I would have looked to kill a criminal as as far within the Caribbean, Africa (Robert Mugabe anyone?) or something like that.
In any case, L was truly superior to every single person in that anime. Yes, he does surpass Light for sure. Light was just in too comfy a situation for L. I remember the first time L came on the scene and he was automatically made my favourite character. The way he thought and worked just made me say "Holy s***".
L would definitely become God. Though, I don't think he would say something so, as he would say, 'childish'.

xD *can't really remember what the ending was* But if it was Light getting shot and everything... that was pretty cool. It kinda seemed like the author him/herself[?] had betrayed Light, because he was on the way to winning and everything... yet ta-da~ Ryuk writes his name in the Deathnote. Pretty cool.
Yeah the twist of fate was quite weird. It seemed like Light was suddenly uber-desperate [maybe he already was, but I haven't actually read the whole Deathnote manga yet so I don't know xD] when he started to use the Deathnote bits in his watch.

From L's first deductions of Kira by his fake appearance to L's death to the supposed triumph of Kira to the twist Near and Mello's triumph...I gotta say Death Note was imo superb in every way.
I especially loved the ending how it seemed Near had been beaten by Light only to be twisted the other way around. If you really think about it, Light's breakdown was very plausible. After 6 years of being Kira with your supposed only rival out of the way and going strong...all while being calm and cool during that time...to have everything destroyed in those last minutes. I could see how he would have gone off.
Plus, if I remember correctly, aren't one of the rules of the Death Note that the user will eventually lose his mind? After all, Light, Mikemi or whatever and the guy in the organization all lost their minds when they came close to losing.

Silhouette
07-11-2008, 01:51 AM
Hira, if the dub ending made you mad, you'd loathe the manga, it makes Light look even more... pathetic.
However, I can fully understand why he went out the way he did. Think about it:
- He'd already beaten L, and all of his previous rivals.
- Not to mention the impact he had; 70% less crimes, no more warfare, etc. He was at the point where most of the world saw him as god - aka, his goal was seconds away from being realized.
- Everything was going just as planned. L was dead. Mello was dead. Everyone seemed to be doing their parts, and his adversaries were none the wiser.
- He'd been fooling everyone for about, what, six straight years?
Then how does it end? Everything he's done for the past six years blew up in his face in about five seconds. Mikami failed him, Light was cornered, all of his hopes and dreams - which were just seconds away from being completed 100% - shattered in his face.
Then he gets shot several times.
He underestimated Near, and thought he was nothing. And, to be defeated by him was probably the deepest wound.
Anyone would've went down the way he did. Well, almost anyone...

His death was completely realistic, even the moments prior. If Light were not as mentally stable nor as sane as he was, he would've actually done something without rational thought, such as try to gun down Near or have a breakdown like Mikami did, but instead tried many approaches to get out of the scenario, such as setting up Near as the villain, justifying his killings, and trying to gain another follower in Matsuda, and when all failed and he was gunned down, he didnt do anything "pathetic" (if by pathetic you mean "miserably or contemptibly inadequate"), he ran for his life and for his freedom, and calling him pathetic for that would be calling the Pilgrims who first came to America "pathetic." If anything, the ending gave a more sympathetic point of view on Light, showing him dieing peacefully, unlike the manga ending that showed a hysteric, broken Light pleading and begging for life, which really showed him dieing as if crawling like a worm from a bird.
hmm hard choice. like ryuk said once someone uses the death note they are doomed to misfortune and will not have a pleasant afterlife.
Exactly. And not only that, I don't think I'd be able to live a comfortable life knowing that I've killed someone; it would always be at the back of my mind, y'know?
Although, I would be greatly tempted to use it if I happened upon it. Not going to lie. :p

I would probably use it on certain people. But I wouldn't use it on everyone I dislike. I'd just use it on some people who have caused a lot of trouble for us and will continue to cause trouble if nothing is done about it
I thoroughly enjoyed Light's demise. Mostly because I couldn't stand Light and everything he became after finding the Death Note, so it was nice to see him get offed. Morbid, I know, but he was just a little too batshit (are we allowed to say that?) crazy for my tastes.

Man the ending of Death Note for me was so epic. I mean I hated when L got killed but then the show started to get back on track with the smartness and the crazy crap. Plus the ending surprised the hello outta me.
I am truly surprised that Kira 2 got tricked like that. i mean this man was like HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH GOD I love you. But then his demise was so sad. he was all like I am so sorry God what have I done noooooo.
And then the epic speech was hot. but the whole trick with the paper in the watch was kinda whack. And when he got shot up by that stupid bum Matsuda I was like omg he shot up light. and then he was about to put a bullet in his head as well.

Has anybody here watched the DN live-action movie? If so, is it worth watching? I am a bit skeptical. Would love to hear your thoughts...

There's already a thread about TTGL.
And yeah, it's an anime made of gold.

The dub is ok, save for the fact that it looks like its in hyperspeed (too sped up), and Kamina's voice is too high.
As for the series: http://clubbleach.net/showthread.php?t=33526
There's already a thread on it in the first page. :p
